Good morning Rotarian's
It was Grey Cup weekend in Canada and I hope you all had fun at the various football parties around town
including the one hosted at our Rotary field house at the South Surrey Athletic Park. Proceeds went to support the local food bank, President Gord should have the winners for our football pool and congratulations to those who won some money!
Today's guest speaker is the RCMP's presentation on crime trends, so its sure to be a very exciting meeting

Rotary Club of Vancouver Chinatown Christmas lunch

On behalf of President Rick Gilbert you and the members of your Rotary club are invited to join us to celebrate Christmas and support people in Vancouver's downtown eastside.

The annual Rotary Club of Vancouver Chinatown Christmas lunch is one of the most popular Rotary celebrations of Christmas in Vancouver.  Please join us this year on December 15^th at the Floata Chinese Restaurant in Chinatown at 400-180 Keefer Street.

Last year more than 300 Rotarians and friends of Rotary joined us to celebrate Christmas and support our neighbours in Vancouver’s downtown eastside.  This year we are again partnering with the Salvation Army Harbour Light to support those that are living on the streets in our community.

We will be entertained by the Salvation Army Brass Ensemble who will play the sounds of Christmas.

The cost of the lunch is only $20.00. You are asked to bring pairs of new socks or a cash (credit card or cheque) gift for the Salvation Army. The socks will be distributed as part of the Rotary Club of Vancouver Quadra’s shoe clinic project in the downtown eastside.

Lunch is from 12:00 noon to 2:00 pm, there is free parking.  Walk from P4 of the parking garage directly into the restaurant. Children and families are welcome and encouraged.  Due to the large group that attends this event please arrive early.

What can you do?  

• Please distribute the attached flyer to your club members
• Announce the event at your meeting
• Post the event on your website and in your club newsletter

We have sent this to club presidents outside of the lower mainland as we know many of your members will be in Vancouver during December and may want to join us.
